All paths should not exceed PATH_MAX, right?

Your PATH_MAX may be a lot shorter than the PATH_MAX on the system I
created my trees on that you are reading.

And that is not just gray theory: On Windows, PATH_MAX is whopping 260
characters!

Does that mean Windows won't accept any path longer than that, or
PATH_MAX is defined just for fun?
